Servings: 8 servings
- 3 lbs white potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 cup cashews, soaked
- 1 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1 tbsp salt
- 1 tsp thyme
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp pepper
To start, preheat the oven to 350f and prepare the cashews by putting them in a small bowl and covering with boiling water.
Next, peel and thinly slice 3 lbs of white potatoes.
Once the cashews have had 5 minutes or so to soak, drain off the water and add them to a blender or food processor along with the broth, salt and spices. Blend until the sauce is creamy, stopping to scrape the sides as needed.
In a 13x9 baking dish, layer in 1/3 of the potato mixture, slightly overlapping the potatoes. Pour over 1/3 of the sauce. Repeat until the potatoes and sauce are used up, ending with sauce on top.
Bake for roughly 1 hour until the potatoes are tender and the top is just slightly golden brown!
